take the heritage foundation, for example. are they down the middle? are they unbiased? let's listen to some of the things they believe, way different than most americans. it's a group that believes freedom mean businesses have the right to discriminate against lgbt people. this is a group that believes limited government means eliminating resources for the violence against women act. this is a group that believes a strong national defense means discriminatory executive orders that bar immigrants and refugees from muslim majority countries. mr. president, this is a group that holds extreme right positions, a group that is far, far out of the american mainstream and is even out of the republican mainstream so many times, and they have hand-picked neil gorsuch to have a seat on the highest court in the land. does anyone think the heritage organization, the federalist society, does anyone think they put a judicial moderate on their list who would only call balls and strikes? does anyone think there would be all this outside dark undisclosed money being spent to support judg

does anyone think that heritage foundation, the heritage organization, federalist society, does anyone to think they put a judicial moderate on the list who would only call balls and strikes? does anyone think it would be all this outside dark, undisclosed money being spent to support judge gorsuch's nomination if he was justst someone who called balls and strikes? know. there's a reason all this dark money is being spent to support him. there's a reason the federalist society and the heritage foundation like judge gorsuch enough to put them on the presidents shortlist.d and there's a reason president pledged only to select from this list. he wanted to curry favor with skeptical hard right special interest dominated conservatives during his campaign. so the idea that judge gorsuch would simply be some neutralot justice, that does not holdns sy water. so when republican say that the democrats will not support judge gorsuch, we won't support any republican nominated judge, that is simply not true. we had several reasons to besuch concerned with judge gorsuch specifically, and specificall

i'm lyanne melendez sitting in for cheryl as we celebrate hispanic heritage month with a round tablescussion with local community leaders. in honor of hispanic heritage month, coca-cola released an ad to celebrate the many hispanic family names. i'm melendez. the ad has been playing extensively on social media and now it's getting criticism from some in the hispanic community who call the marketing campaign -- listen to this -- "hispandering." >> garcia's my family name, and there's a legacy and heritage that comes with a name. >> i love the name rodriguez. when i consider my name, i think of my father. >> coca-cola made this short film to highlight a few hispanic families and the pride they share towards their last names. then a bright red coca-cola truck comes into the neighborhood handing out coke cans, each one displaying a hispanic last name. >> yeah, we call it "hispandering." >> hispanic groups like the online blog latino rebels say coke goes too far, linking pride to a soft drink during hispanic heritage month. >> more and more, it's turning into some extended cinco de mayo m

some here may agree with the heritage foundation, but they're not a mainstream organization. they're on the far right. that's their right to be, but their advocacy of judge gorsuch suggests he is not a balls and strikes guy. and finally, judge gorsuch is someone who almost instinctively favors the powerful over the weak, corporations over working americans. that's what his record shows. judge gorsuch repeatedly sided with the insurance companies who wanted to deny disability benefits to employees and an employment -- in employment discrimination cases, he sided with employers the great majority of the time. he wrote in dissent that trucking company executives were right to fire truck driver alphonse maddin for leaving his trailer in order to save his life. and just last week, we saw another example of how extreme judge gorsuch's views are when the supreme court unanimously rebuked his interpretation of the individual with disabilities act. in the opinion of even justice thomas, the educational rights judge gorsuch would allow to disabled students under the law amounted to no

they would admit that themselves the heritage foundation, the federalist society. lo and behold, the process didn't produce a nominee who could earn 60 votes. by contrast, justice ginsburg earned 93 votes. justice breyer earned 87. so mr. president, we are offering president trump and our friends on the other side a way forward. they don't have to break the rules to get a justice on the bench. they don't have to break the senate confirmation process, a fundamentally weakening then constitutional principle of advice and consent to get justice on the bench. the president, president trump could simply consult with members of both parties to try and come up with a consensus nominee who could get approved and meet a 60-vote threshold. is the answer again isn't to change the rules. it is to change the nominee. and we democrats are not going to oppose every republican nominee. of course we realize the nominee select the best way would not completely agree with our viewsd the judge gorsuch is so far out vote to earn both to pass the senate. even justice roberts and alito,

that is why the heritage foundation and the federalist society put judge gorsuch on their list. emily of the new york times in a brilliant article i urge all my colleagues to read, the reality is judge gorsuch embraces a judicial philosophy that would do nothing less then undermine the structure of modern government including the keep our water clean, regulate financial markets and protects workers and women. i asked unanimous consent that article be added into the record. >> without objection. >> there are clearly principled reasons to oppose judge gorsuch and enough of we democrats have reasons to prevent his nomination from moving forward on thursday's cloture vote. the question is no longer whether judge gorsuch will get enough votes on the cloture motion, the question is now will the majority leader and our friends on the other side break the rules of the senate to approve judge gorsuch on a majority vote? that question should be the focus of the debate on the floor and it should weigh heavily on the conscience of every senator would ultimately my republican friends face th
